Head Boy and Head Girl Elections

This week marked the first formal elections for Birkwood’s Head Boy and Head Girl. After learning about democracy and governance in our country from Mr. Froggatt, we moved into a formal Hustings on Monday. Each candidate presented their manifesto to over 200 of their peers. All five candidates were amazing and worthy of the prestigious position!

Voting took place in school on Monday afternoon – our School Councillors ensured that votes were completed and submitted according to the law. After a day of sorting, counting and verifying, the results were announced in assembly, where short speeches from the successful candidates also took place.

We are really proud of all of the children who stood for election, and well done again to our first ever Head Boy and Head Girl.
